The Fenland basin was the largest lowland wetland in Britain, straddling six historic counties. It now has a reputation for uniformity, but The Fenland Flora disproves that assumption, showing how an impressive range of plants survive against the odds, and how the region is a key biodiversity stronghold for some groups. This Flora provides not only a unique account of the current status of wild plants in Fenland but also how their ranges have changed over the centuries and analyses the factors behind these changes.
